- Trump threatens new tariffs on Russia over Ukraine war
- US president lectures world leaders on migration, climate change
- Calls climate change a con job
UNITED NATIONS, Sept 23 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump argued for lower levels of global migration and urged a turn away from climate change policies on Tuesday in a combative, wide-ranging speech to the U.N. General Assembly that leveled scathing criticism of world leaders.
The 56-minute speech was a rebuke to the world body and a return to form for Trump, who routinely bashed the U.N. during his first term as president. Leaders gave him polite applause when he exited the chamber.

Just your daily reminder that the President of the United States is a deranged lunatic.

Just your daily reminder that this is America, not Trump.

Just your daily reminder that there are a lot more countries than just the United States in America

Fucking look around. I swear Americans think what’s happening inside is on the same level as elsewhere.
Fuck America, fuck Russia, you sound and NOW ACT exactly the same.
The DEFAULT American now is the same as ones first thought of a 1930s German.

Someone missed the point to go on an anti US rant.
The guy above you was saying that you should say US not America. America ambiguously refers to North and South America

I’ll acknowledge that but nobody on this continent thinks that way.
The USA appropriated “America” decades ago, and it’s the common usage.
Arguing that the hemisphere is America in a comment about fascist USA is nitpicking at best.

Virtually every other country on both American continents, with the exception of Canada and a few French speaking countries, call people from the US “Estadounidense”, or similar, which literally means United Statesians. Only in the English and French speaking realms are people from the US called Americans. And there are way more Spanish and Portuguese speakers than there are English and French speakers in all of the Americas

And my daily reminder that he is the most prolific traitor in the history of America, worse than ALL other American traitors, COMBINED.
Also, he's a pedophile, and breath-takingly corrupt. And he smells bad.

I won't smile until he's driven out and seeks refuge in Aberbizzle.

Too good for him.
Once he's feeling safe, they should track him down and drag him out of his cave, and bring him back for prosecution. They can ship him in a box, like they did with Mengele.

Well I mean I recently heard one of their FoxNews "experts" saying Hitler was in heaven. So... Really it's a matter of what company you want to keep.

What an absolute idiot

Absolutely.

The worst part is that when they all finally go to Hell, he'll be there waiting. Spending eternity listening to him drone on is my idea of Hell.

Polite applause, because he finally stopped talking

Maybe focus on how the country you're responsible for is going to hell first. "America first", remember?
A_norny_mousse@feddit.org · 5 pts · 344d
These two pretty much exclude each other, bonehead.
Oh, who am I kidding. "Politics" has been mostly kneejerk instead of thoughtful argument for a while now, and not only in America.
Actually I want to see how he embarasses himself in front of the whole fucking UN, but the reuters video won't load for me.
